The Day the Music (server) Died...
Oct. 28th, 2006 04:42 pmThat day was Wednesday. Also the day I got a root canal. The server problem was worse.
Dead power supply, and $100 to get a used replacement. We considered our options, and decided to get a Mac mini instead. It's a small, low power box and it should be significantly faster for the apps we're using than the circa 2000 G4 that it's replacing.
So
new mini-> webserver
webserver->mailserver
mailserver->music server
Yeah, I've got a weekend of work. possibly two. Good thing I like doing this stuff.

Date: 2006-10-29 05:02 am (UTC)Let's keep in touch by cell phone on Wednesday. You're obviously welcome to join us. I'd forgotten that JL and I had discussed the possibility of eating in Brooklyn since I've seen much of Manhattan and little of the remainder of the city. If it looks like that's the only time I'm going to see you, though, I guess we'll have to change our plans.
